Archives Corner By Carrie Wiggins
By the Way…. Do you know where you can see the original plat of the Alamo? Where can you find the minutes of the first city council meeting of the City of San Antonio? Do you know what the map of the city of San Antonio looked like in 1898? Did the City have parks in 1900 and if so where were they? The City of San Antonio houses all of these items and more in the Municipal Archives & Records Facility.
Survey Book 1, Alamo Plat
The Municipal Archives & Records Division of the Office of the City Clerk maintains the City of San Antonio’s historical records. Our historical records date back to 1770 and consists of City Council Meeting Minutes, Ordinances, Maps, Deeds, Birth and Death Records to name a few. Our Records facility is 60,000 square feet of which 80% are active and inactive records and 20% are archival records. Our primary goal is to follow the City’s established records management program and maintain the archival program. We try and make the historical records accessible by digitizing records and adding proper metadata index terms for search and retrieval.

SHRED DAY – APRIL 19, 2014

Shred Day at the SACU branch loca-tions is always a busy day, sometimes with non-stop lines. This is an ARMA and SACU sponsored event with four shredding companies. The shredding companies are Mar-shall Shredding, Ranger Shredding, Iron Mountain and Compass Recycling. We need you to volunteer and you can pick the branch location of your choice. Shred Day is April 19th and will be held from 9:00 to 12:00 unless the trucks are full. The SACU branch loca-tions are: Main at 6061 IH 10 West, Bandera at 8889 Bandera Rd, Windsor at 8047 Midcrown, 281 & 1604 at 1717 N. Loop 1604, and Ingram at 6171 NW Loop 410. It’s a fun day and you can meet some very interesting people. Last year there was 95,508 pounds of documents that were shredded, and ARMA San Antonio received $1,311.88 from donations by grateful customers.

Interesting Reading Ten Surprising Things about HVAC and Sustainable Environmental Management Image Permanence Institute Climate Notes, Issue 23. – March 2014 (The Image Permanence Institute is a recognized world leader in the development and deployment of sustainable practices for the preservation of images and cultural property – balancing costs against need. IPI is a nonprofit, university-based laboratory devoted to preservation research, providing consulting and practi-cal tools and preservation technology to libraries, archives, and museums. Submitted by Anne Comeaux, CRM ) Jim Reilly, the founder and director of IPI, recently documented some of what he has learned from studying the role of HVAC operation in managing the environ-ment for preservation. He shared ten facts about HVAC systems not realized by most people. 1. Energy waste doesn’t self-announce. You have to go looking for it. What
comes out of the air diffuser can seem just fine (i.e., what you want or expect) but the work done on the air—and therefore the energy cost—can vary hugely. Experience shows that about 30% of energy cost is due to suboptimal opera-tion.
2. Buildings often have a surprising ability to ‘coast’ when systems are turned off. Many (but not all) buildings will gracefully maintain temperature and RH conditions over a period of time if there is a malfunction or intentional shutdown of HVAC sys-tems. Continued on page 13

3. ‘Flat-lined’ 70 °F (21 °C) and 50% RH aren’t the best conditions for everything. Although 50% RH is not a harmful condition for most kinds of objects, a temperature of 70° F (21° C) might be too warm for effective preservation of materials that degrade through spontaneous chemical reactions.
4. Follow the moisture—pay attention to dew point. Improper relative humidity (RH) leads to a variety of forms of collection decay, but the surprising thing is that the best way to understand and control RH is to track and analyze dew point. The dew point temperature is an indirect measure of the absolute amount of moisture in the air.
5. Collections don’t need to breathe. Ventilation requirements for collection spaces are determined by three main goals, ensuring good uniformity and mixing of air, supplying sufficient fresh air for human occupants and diluting any volatiles that may arise by out-gassing from collections or building materials.
6. Dehumidification is the most energy-intensive operation for most HVAC systems. In temperate climates, dealing with the high moisture content of outside air in the summertime is one of the most im-portant functions of HVAC systems. Dehumidification is quite energy-intensive—but vitally necessary for many collection environments.
7. No two HVAC systems are alike. The majority of systems a decade old or more are currently operating in a way noticeably different from what their designer intended. Operators over the years modify either the equipment or the operating program, or both. The result? You have to study each individual system to un-derstand how it is actually working.
8. There probably isn’t anyone driving the bus. Casual observers might assume that within an institution there is someone who has a holistic overview of what HVAC systems are supposed to be doing (what con-ditions should they deliver for best collection preservation) as well as how effectively they are meeting the desired goals. This person would, ideally, also keep an eye on energy use. In reality, there usually is not such a person because of the fragmented nature of how systems are specified, designed, installed, operated and maintained.
9. There is no substitute for data. Without a record of environmental conditions nothing can be under-stood or evaluated about the preservation quality of any collection storage or display environment.
10. There’s usually a correlation between a clean, orderly mechanical room and a well-run facilities depart-ment. It’s always an interesting thing to do to visit the mechanical rooms in your institution. Not only do you learn about the equipment and people that operate the building, but you can often see at a glance how much care and attention the systems get. When you see unlabeled piping, dirt, coffee cups, wiring scraps, plumbing debris, dirty filters piled up and general disarray, it’s a good bet that the facilities operation is itself either severely under-staffed, badly or indifferently run or otherwise in crisis.
